That's the problem. Because the brand that you use never fail you, you will believe in that brand. But if some others that used the same brand as you but it fail, you will have tons of excuse to said it is not the brand fault. And such, because you fully believe in that brand since it never fail you, all other brands are of a lower grade than yours.

Just saying anyway.

Welp, just like how I don't trust Seagate drives and MSI mobos based on percentage failure on benign usage...

Then again, I had bad experiences with WD and Samsung too...

Anecdote evidence ftw.

You mean all 4pcs has coil whine issue?
If it's the case, then it is really strange as this model has been sold for many years and did not have known coil whine.

If there is a prominent issue, like the X series, we will definitely raise them to Seasonic and get it resolved.

My statistics show this series has the lowest rma percentage.

If you still have this 4pcs, PM me, I will take another look at them and see what we can do about it.

Anecdotal evidence gathered from some USian gamers is that Seasonic (especially the older Gold efficiency X series) has the worst incidence of coil whines compared to other brands, especially the perennial favourites of Corsair and EVGA.

And do they realize Corsair and EVGA PSUs are also made by Seasonic? Certain models.

That's why anecdotal evidence is only useful up to a limit.

Don't people realize the concept of biased sampling... Like how SMRT reliability has improved based on survey of commuters
